EAST AND WEST LINE.

A WONDERFUL BUT VERY INDEFINITE
TALE ABOUT A GREAT RAILWAY PRO
JECT.
ST. LOUIS, Mo-, Jan. A report has
been in circulation since Jay Gould came
west few days ago that that gentleman
has in contemplation the establishment
of through east and west railroad
route from Denver to Newport
News, or Norfolk on the At
lantic By way of Memphis, but
the report was of so indefinite a charec-
ter that little credence was given it. Now
it is stated, however, on the authority of
a high Missouri Pacific official that such
a project is really in view, and in all like
lihood will be carried out in the
near future. The route of the road west
of the Mississippi is defined by
a road now in process of construction
from Memphis to Bald Knob on the Iron
Mountain line, thence by road to be
built directly northwest to Chetopa or
Oswego, Kan, where it will strike the
Missouri, Kansas and Texas. From
this point there is now road
to Kingman, Kan, which is controlled
by the Missouri Pacific, but operated by
the Fitzgerald Mallory Construction
Company. From Kingman the road is to
be extended by the shortest route to Den
yer. East of the Mississippi river the
route has not yet been defined. The
whole line is to be called the Denver,
Memphis and Atlantic Railway.

Storey, first wife of Wilbur +. Storey, and
afterward divorced from him, was not

AN OUTLET TO THE SOUTH FROM THE .DA-
KOTA COAL FIELDS.
ST. LOUIS, Mo-, Jan. 2l.-It is given
out here on what is alleged to be nigh
authority that Jay Gould stands behind
the projected Kansas, Nebraska and Da-
kota Railroad, or what is better knows as
Col. Bushes great north and south line,
which is designed to connect the coal
fields of Dakota with New Orleans, and
that ne now owns controlling interest in
the enterprise, and intends to make it a
big thing. One hundred miles of road
are now IN operation, and the greater
part of the right of way has been pro-
vided for. The recent purchase by Mr..
Gould of the Little Rock, Fort Smith and
Mississippi road in Arkansas is said to have
been for the purpose of making it a link in
the great line, and the present plan is to
strike Natchez, Miss. The scheme may
be changed after Gould's present tour Of
inspection. What is known as the New
Orleans, Natchez and Fort Scott road is
part of the plan, and the Kansas, Ne
braska and Dakota will be extended
southwark to Fort Smith, and thus make
the connecting link.

dwell upon the fertility Of the
country traversed by the road in
Kansas, upon the richness of the mining
and ranching lands it opens up in New
Mexico and Arizona and the advantages
of the through line to the coast over the
Atlantic and Pacific Road. AS to the
attacks made by Mr.. c. II. Eennor of
Boston upon the company, it is claimed
that they have helped the latter, because
the courts always decide against Mr.. Ven
nor, and the questions he raises being
partially settled, dispels fears of possible
litigation.

DALLAS, TEX, Jan. 2l.-It is rumored
that railroad people are trying to pur-
chase the county courthouse for union
depot, and that 500, 900 has been offered.
It will require special act of the legis-
lature to effect the sale, as the property
was decided by Nicely Bryan, the founder
of Dallas, for special purposes. If this
is attempted it will cause much "monkey-
ing" in real estate circles, and lively
time is anticipated.

Couldn't part with the Trick Horses.

When Clrcusman Cole sold his stock in
New Orleans the other day three dun ring
horses that he has owned for years went
with the others by mistake. Mr.. Cole at
once bought them back, saying that he
would never consent to have the horses
become the property of any one who would
make them work, and that he had decided
to put them to painless death. He pro-
posed bleeding them to death, but W
Leonard, a liveryman. suggested tia
use OF chloroform would be hooUol ana
and less painful mode. This was finally
decided upon, and reliable man procur-
ed, who was to have performed the opera
ton. They were all collected in the circus
tent. There were Cole, Leonard, the
riders, and the clowns, the ringmaster,
the tumblers and leapers, and the three
pet duns. Calling the little mare by name
he told her to kiss them all good-bY. The
intelligent animal, stretching forward her
bead, kissed each one. This was more
than they could stand, and the sacrifice
vas put off. Cole had no place to take
them to, so Mr.. Leonard promised to find
some one who would assume charge of
them, under a guarantee never to work
them, but to keep them in good ordeI
until old age should claim them forz
grave.
